Boike’s Restaurant History

The Boike family opened their first restaurant, Boike’s Country Inn, in Ossian, IA on
February 3rd, 1993. The restaurant had a comfortable family atmosphere, and yet just the
right amount of class. Then in 1998 the Boike family was asked to open another restaurant
in Fayette, IA. On September 1st, 1998 the Boike’s opened Boike’s Trailside Inn,
at 106 7th St, the former location of Ott’s Drive-In. This location suited the restaurant
well, until the former home The Sugar Bowl, at 152 S. Main St. became available on
June 12th, 2002. Due to space restrictions at their current location the Boike’s
decided to relocate downtown.

Boike’s Features

The salad bar is one of the largest in Northeast Iowa and all the salads are made in-house
from the Boike’s own recipes. Make sure you save room for one of the specialty desserts.
Pies are our specialty, many of the selections are flavors that you just won’t find
anywhere else! Ice cream sundaes are made from premium, hand -dipped ice cream, but
that’s not all...They are made with love, that’s why they taste so yummy! The Better-Than-
Broasted Chicken, Alaskan Walleye, Hand Breaded Pork Tenderloins, Dave’s Famous
Hickory Smoked Ribs, and the Liver and Onions are just a few of the house specials.
You won’t be disappointed!
